Subaru Ipoh Shijo Carnival & Classic Car Gathering
I rushed over to Dataran MBI yesterday after participating in the 1/2-day ‘Self-Drive in Thailand’ Workshop organised by Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) to attend the Subaru Ipoh Shijo Carnival & Classic Car Gathering.
I arrived just in the nick of time to take photos of these classic car beauties. It was raining cats and dogs but that did not deter me from the task at hand.
In conjunction with the Subaru Ipoh Shijo Carnival, almost 70 classic (and vintage) cars from the Malaysia Singapore Vintage Car Register (MSVCR) and Perak Classic Car Club (PCCC) participated in the car gathering. They were joined in by four classic cars from the personal collection of DYTM Raja Muda Perak, Raja Jaafar ibni Almarhum Raja Muda Musa.
In the morning, 54 of these cars went in a convoy from Symphony Suites Hotel where they put up a night, to the Petron Station in Chepor. After a short joy ride around town, they converged at Dataran MBI, until about 2.30pm.
During the Subaru Ipoh Shijo Carnival, there was a gymkhana competition as well as an opportunity to take the new Subaru Shijo on a test drive, which I missed. Luckily, I can always test drive the Subaru Shijo. Do you want to take it for a spin as well?

OMG! Those valuable, antique and classic cars are among some of my father’s favorite. I have visited the automobile gallery of Selangor owned by the Sultan of Selangor and have even ignited two of them. Those luxurious leathers!
all the classic cars look so sharp. lovely event by Subaru
the cars are beautiful! I wanna have one of them for collection! Saw one just like it in 1u parking that day.
Those vintage cars are spot on! I always dream to have my own vintage car, hopefully someday.
Love looking at vintage cars they last long not like cars these days… cepat rosak…

Love those classic cars. I hate when people trash them. They can be restored so beautifully!
